The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 5659

Vera giggled and said, “Coincidentally, I still have the very last piece of Pu’er tea left. I've been reluctant to drink it, and I have been waiting for the day when I can personally brew it for you to taste it. Charlie, please wait a moment!”

Charlie hurriedly said, “Miss Lavor, there's no need to trouble yourself. Just pour me a glass of water.”

Vera stood up and did not look back as she said, “The Pu’er tea that I saved is the best Pu'er tea in the world. Charlie, you will definitely regret it in the future if you don’t taste it.”

After saying that, Vera added, “Moreover, I will start explaining everything that you’re curious about, starting from that piece of Pu’er tea.”

Vera then quickly fetched her complete tea set and the piece of Pu'er tea she had always treasured without waiting for Charlie’s response.

After returning to the bedside, Vera carefully lit the olive charcoal in the copper stove. While waiting for the water to boil, she opened the well-aged Pu'er tea with a delicate Pu'er tea knife.

The moment the tea leaves were unpacked, Charlie could smell a unique tea fragrance that he had never smelled before. This fragrance was rich, mellow, and, after a long period of fermentation and storage, carried an indescribable ancient charm, which made him feel refreshed and happy.

Charlie had watched his father drink tea since he was young, and he occasionally drank a cup or more, so he was quite knowledgeable about tea as well. However, he had never seen such a special tea. It was not an exaggeration to say that all other Pu’er teas paled in comparison to this piece of Pu’er tea.

Vera gracefully boiled water and brewed the tea. After the tea leaves entered the water, they quickly dispersed, and a more intense tea fragrance filled the air, making Charlie feel significantly more awake in the midst of this tea aroma.

Vera then immediately poured the brewed tea into a small tea cup and handed the clear tea to Charlie as she said with a smile, “Charlie, try it.”

“No.” Vera gently shook her head, then turned and took out a small package. She carefully unfolded it, and there was a piece of ancient Thunderstrike wood in it.

Vera took out the Thunderstrike wood and said with a sigh, “Anything that has lived for a long time will face its own calamity. Those who cultivate are no exception, and this tree is no exception. It lived for tens of thousands of years, nurturing countless tea plants, but it also had its own calamity to overcome. This is what it looks like after failing to overcome calamity.”

Charlie asked doubtfully, “How do you know so clearly?”

Vera looked at Charlie, then lowered her head to look at the Thunderstrike wood in her hand. Her expression showed that she seemed to be struggling.

After a moment, she raised her head, looked into Charlie’s clear eyes, and spoke with her slightly parted lips, “Because… three hundred years ago, I stood by the Heavenly Lake in Yorkshire Hill, and I watched it happen with my own eyes…”
